Copyright concerns
The Wikimedia Foundation received a complaint at 2012101210000775 (viewable only to OTRS agents) about the misuse of content from http://www.militarymuseum.org/LosAngelesMountedRifles2.html in three articles, including this one. While content misuse is more blatant in other instances, there is demonstrably copied and closely paraphrased text here.

For one example, the source says:

The article says:

I have bolded content that is precisely duplicated (although some words may have been omitted from the original) to help clarify the issue.

I am in discussion with the author to see if he will license this content compatibly so that we can continue to use it in all three of these articles. If not, all content taken from this source will need to be removed. Proactively, editors are welcome to rewrite this article in the temporary space, being sure that no content from this source is carried over. Information can be retained, but original language and structure needs to be used, and content must be cited thoroughly. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:48, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
